Our family is in decline

"You can only be considered as reserve personnel and not as soldiers, but you can avoid the death penalty and cannot escape the penalty of death. You will all go to the farm to do hard labor for three years. Your status will be reinstated based on your performance."

Lance announced the solution. He couldn't easily let go of these guys who had eaten his food for so many days in vain.

It just so happened that the farm was short of labor, so they had to spit out whatever they could eat in three years, and they had to squeeze out all their value.

However, those people did not dare to have any dissatisfaction, and were even somewhat grateful that they did not have to be beheaded.

"Vic, hang your head in the square for ten days and put up a notice explaining the situation."

"Yes!" Vic took a deep breath, stepped out of the queue, picked up his head, endured the discomfort and left.

"George, you lead five people to ransack the house, and then go to the square to compensate the victims."

"Andrew, I'll give you one hour to lead the team and escort them to the farm. If anyone tries to escape, the sentence will be increased by two years."

"yes!"

After receiving the order, Andrew immediately organized a formation and drove those people out of the camp.

If he wanted to go back and forth between the town and the farm in an hour, he would have to run. He couldn't let the lord down.

George also picked up his sword and followed him. The blood stains on his body had not yet been removed, and his tense face gave people a sense of intimidation.

Lance stood on top without saying a word, watching those people move, and the training camp cleared out after a while.

"Come on, let's go see how the people in the town react."

Lance walked out, and his cold expression relaxed a little.

He found the townspeople last night to investigate and confirm the situation. He has always been merciless to such black sheep.

And what George did was what he had ordered last night. He wanted to control it as soon as he led the team out.

The subsequent killing was also his arrangement, otherwise George would not have been able to bring weapons in advance.

What Lance has to do is to establish his authority so that he can have enough confidence to supervise those soldiers in the future.

Sure enough, the arrests made by the three teams just now attracted the public's attention, and they were a little overwhelmed when Vic came out with a head.

Fortunately, Vic was quick-thinking and started explaining the situation along the way.

These townspeople were already biased towards Lance, and after hearing the reason, they immediately voted one-sided and praised the lord's decision.

Because they were fed up with the oppression of those soldiers.

It is actually difficult to completely separate the two words "soldiers and bandits" in this chaotic era. Some armies with lax military management are actually no different from bandits.

Now that the lord is punishing them like this, they obviously feel happy. If they have been bullied, they will work hard to promote the greatness of the lord.

Lance looked at the edge of the square for a while, and after making sure there was no problem, he turned his attention to the pub and casino.

As the project progresses, most people have some money, and these are the only places in the town that can provide entertainment.

Although the bulk of the food came back to him through grain, these two uncontrollable areas still made him very unhappy.

But soon they will disappear...

Lance withdrew his gaze and began to lead the two of them towards the grain store.

"grown ups."

There were not many guests this early in the morning, so someone immediately greeted Lance as he entered.

It was Little John who came.

Lance has never been stingy with his own people, and he took some credit for helping him win the farm. Besides, after Walter was transferred, someone needed to take charge of the grain store, so he might as well leave it to him. He was familiar with these things anyway.

"Have you investigated everything I want?"

"Everything is ready, sir." Little John turned around and took out a picture, which briefly showed the situation at the port.

"The ship boss's people..."

If you catch fish, you also need to eat. Now the most eaten meat in the town is fish, which is obtained by exchanging grain with the boat boss.

In order not to irritate the ship's boss, Lance did not expand his power there. He just acquiesced that the port belonged to him, but it was only temporary.

In fact, Lance had already arranged for Little John to observe the situation in the port through the opportunity of delivering food, and of course those ships~

And now - the time has come, raise your troops today!

Leonard and the other two were also amazed at the arrangement of the lord. Listening to Little John's description, it was obvious that they had been preparing for it very early. In other words, the lords had already figured out how to deal with the ship boss before they even left the city to suppress the bandits.

The two of them are also from the legion, and the army's attack also pays attention to strategic and tactical arrangements, but now the quality shown by the lord is somehow higher than them.

"You did a good job." Lance raised his hand and threw a gold coin. Now that he was not short of money, this information would be of great help to him in taking down the ship's boss.

"Thank you, Lord!" Little John took the gold coin with a look of surprise on his face, but soon he offered the gold coin again with both hands, "It was the Lord who saved us, and it is only right to help the Lord. I don't want money. "

Lance was also a little surprised. Seeing his confused look, he smiled and asked.

"Just tell me what you have to say?"

"Sir, I want to redeem my father." Little John looked at Lance tentatively.

"Okay, we'll make arrangements after I deal with those guys." Lance raised his hand and patted Little John on the shoulder.

If the farm should have enough people after capturing the ship boss, some serfs can be gradually released to enrich the town's labor force and speed up the progress of the project.

"Let's go back."

Lance took the map and left. Little John was overjoyed to get his promise and just wanted to see his father as soon as possible.

…………

The remaining thirty-six people on the training ground regrouped and then participated in various training tests.

Physical fitness, strength, crossbows, sword skills, shield skills...

They seemed to have realized something, and knew that the test results would determine whether they could stay, so they all used their last effort to express themselves as much as possible.

They don't want to be eliminated. After getting used to the life in the military camp, they no longer want to become ordinary laborers.

Not to mention that you can still get money after becoming a formal soldier, and your family will receive tax benefits. Even if you die, you will leave a sum of money to your family.

And those who still have the energy to spare work even harder. They want to win the position of captain, and no one is willing to let it go.

Lance observed these people. To be honest, most of them were not qualified according to his requirements, but there were only so many people. He had to pick the taller ones from the shorter ones.

After a round of training, Lance probably made a judgment, and after discussing with Barristan and Leonard, he assembled his troops.

"gather!"

Everyone stopped training and turned their attention to the high platform.

"Now I will announce the results of this assessment."

really! The people in the audience showed unprecedented nervousness. They didn't want their names to appear on the list.

"Andrew, excellent."

"Vic, excellent."

"..."
